Trough struggle for achieving women\u2019s human rights, we are essentially fighting for a different world. It is a long-term struggle with intertwined aspects, a non-linear and repeatedly challenging struggle which has to be ingrained in <em>thought-out, joint actions<\/em>, always with <em>transformational desires. <\/em>Without relativization, without racing about which identity is more oppressed \u2013 with a complete and solid <em>focus<\/em>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The program serves for exploring, questioning and fighting against natioonalism, militarism, racism and all forms of discrimination and violence against women \u2013 against their visible and less visible manifestations. These issues do not stand on their own \u2013 since the wars in the 1990s until today, they are the promoters and tools for maintaining numerous socio-economic, ethnic and racial, cultural and ideological and other injustices and inequalities. That is why Special Focus is open to most diverse subjects relating to the named issues \u2013 with insisting that the activities with which you apply reflect that connection. All the suggested activities have to be conducted through clearly articulated feminist prism. We are open to <em>experimental approaches, bold steps forward, uncompromising struggles and true resistance.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through this program, we support what is formally called projects, because that is the framework through which we can provide support. Yet, <strong>we are not interested in projects as a mere form <\/strong>nor in activities for the activities\u2019 sake. We are aware that the term \u201cproject\u201d is frequently burdened by bureaucratization, narrowing action space and political passivization, which is why we encourage you to creatively and defiantly break the rigid project frameworks. Think about your work as <strong>struggles, actions, interventions in the context, processes, programmatic continuity, movements, transformations and forms of resistance.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the beginning, the program is focused on learning and spreading knowledge on critical subjects, communication and big campaigns, including Roma women\u2019s activism, LGBTQ activism and activism of other marginalized persons \u2013 we wish the program to follow these traces and evolves into even more concrete and influential actions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Program has several permanent lines &#8211; you can find detailed descriptions on the following pages:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-button-wrapper gb-button-wrapper-0edbd8ad\">\n\n<a class=\"gb-button gb-button-1df7501d right-icon custom-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rwfund.org\/eng\/programs\/special-focus\/special-focus-call\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong>Special Focus CALL<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 123 123\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M61.439 0v.016c-16.976 0-32.335 6.874-43.443 17.981S.016 44.464.016 61.438H0v.002h.016c0 16.978 6.874 32.336 17.981 43.444 11.107 11.106 26.467 17.98 43.441 17.98v.016h.002v-.016c16.977 0 32.336-6.874 43.443-17.98 11.107-11.108 17.981-26.467 17.981-43.441h.016v-.003h-.016c0-16.976-6.874-32.335-17.981-43.442S78.416.016 61.442.016V0h-.003zM51.181 42.479a4.958 4.958 0 017.107-6.912l21.838 22.519-3.554 3.456 3.569-3.458a4.97 4.97 0 01-.283 7.188l-21.57 22.057a4.957 4.957 0 01-7.107-6.912l18.473-18.889-18.473-19.049z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-button-wrapper gb-button-wrapper-eb473d0e\">\n\n<a class=\"gb-button gb-button-9e1d0c98 right-icon custom-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rwfund.org\/eng\/category\/focus-on-focus\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong>Focus on Focus &#8211; see the supported programs in action!<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 123 123\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M61.439 0v.016c-16.976 0-32.335 6.874-43.443 17.981S.016 44.464.016 61.438H0v.002h.016c0 16.978 6.874 32.336 17.981 43.444 11.107 11.106 26.467 17.98 43.441 17.98v.016h.002v-.016c16.977 0 32.336-6.874 43.443-17.98 11.107-11.108 17.981-26.467 17.981-43.441h.016v-.003h-.016c0-16.976-6.874-32.335-17.981-43.442S78.416.016 61.442.016V0h-.003zM51.181 42.479a4.958 4.958 0 017.107-6.912l21.838 22.519-3.554 3.456 3.569-3.458a4.97 4.97 0 01-.283 7.188l-21.57 22.057a4.957 4.957 0 01-7.107-6.912l18.473-18.889-18.473-19.049z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-button-wrapper gb-button-wrapper-ff6e6836\">\n\n<a class=\"gb-button gb-button-39aa92c7 right-icon custom-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rwfund.org\/eng\/programs\/special-focus\/special-focus-archive\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\"><strong>The Archive of the previous Special Focus campaigns<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 123 123\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M61.439 0v.016c-16.976 0-32.335 6.874-43.443 17.981S.016 44.464.016 61.438H0v.002h.016c0 16.978 6.874 32.336 17.981 43.444 11.107 11.106 26.467 17.98 43.441 17.98v.016h.002v-.016c16.977 0 32.336-6.874 43.443-17.98 11.107-11.108 17.981-26.467 17.981-43.441h.016v-.003h-.016c0-16.976-6.874-32.335-17.981-43.442S78.416.016 61.442.016V0h-.003zM51.181 42.479a4.958 4.958 0 017.107-6.912l21.838 22.519-3.554 3.456 3.569-3.458a4.97 4.97 0 01-.283 7.188l-21.57 22.057a4.957 4.957 0 01-7.107-6.912l18.473-18.889-18.473-19.049z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/a>\n\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Special Focus is a program devoted to specific actions in feminist and peace activism.
